Good morning David, To answer your questions We do have a local username; all our switches have, 500 of them. I have traced the request and response between the FreeRadius server and the N5K, the server returns a service-type (6) AVP of Shell user (6) which according to the Free Radius documentation at http://freeradius.org/rfc/attributes.html is an Administrative user. The syntax that I have placed into the following file Cisco-AVPair += "shell:roles=network-admin",
Service-Type := Administrative-User,
I have also tried Hint == "XXXXXX", Auth-Type := Accept Reply-Message = "ACCEPT: Authorizing enable access", Cisco-AVPair = "shell:roles*\"network-admin\"", Cisco-AVPair += "shell:priv-lvl=15", Service-Type = Administrative-User, Fall-Through = No Cisco-AVPair = "shell:roles=\"network-operator vdc-admin\""
Cisco-AVPair = "shell:roles*\"network-operator vdc-admin\"" Cisco-AVPair = "shell:roles=\"network-admin vdc-admin\"" Cisco-AVPair = "shell:roles*\"network-admin\""
The configuration I have on the 5K radius-server host xxxx key 7 "XXXXXX" authentication accounting aaa group server radius FreeRadius server xxxxx use-vrf management aaa authentication login default group FreeRadius source address xxxxx It looks as though the 5K is not interpreting the attribute correctly, or I am not editing the correct file. Whatever syntax I use I get the same results, I get authenticated but the nexus places me as an operator. The file I am editing is /usr/local/etc/raddb/sites-available/default Rgds Darren Shaw The Network Team Computing Services University of Huddersfield Queensgate Huddersfield HD1 3DH TEL: 01484 471317 MOBILE: 07792 773807 -----Original Message----- From: freeradius-users-bounces+d.shaw=hud.ac.uk@lists.freeradius.org [mailto:freeradius-users-bounces+d.shaw=hud.ac.uk@lists.freeradius.org] On Behalf Of David Mitchell Sent: 05 May 2011 15:35 To: FreeRadius users mailing list Subject: Re: Nexus Configurations On May 5, 2011, at 4:47 AM, Darren Shaw wrote:
Hello David,
Thanks for the syntax. Sadly this still does not work. The free radius server will authenticate me as a user but the 5K wants me as an operator and not admin.
If you have the 5K working, could I be cheeky and ask if you could mail me the radius config on your 5K
There isn't anything in the radius config that enables this as far as I can tell. Do you have a local account on the 5K? That might override the info from the RADIUS server. Run the command 'show user-account' after logging in. For me, it indicates that the account was created via remote authentication. I assume you have run the radius server in debug mode to verify that the attributes are actually in the access accept packets sent back to the switch? -David Mitchell
thanks

Good Morning
I am new to this forum and to the workings of FreeRadius and I have a query around the Cisco Nexus family.
Currently we have all our switches and routers authentication to FreeRadius and all seems to be working. The problem comes when I want to authenticate my Nexus 7K and 5K's. The 7Ks and 5Ks will authenticated me but the Nexus puts me in an operator role and not in an administrator's role.
According to Cisco I have to place the following into
/usr/local/etc/raddb/sites-available/default
Cisco-AVPair = "shell:roles=\"network-operator vdc-admin\"" Cisco-AVPair = "shell:roles*\"network-operator vdc-admin\"" Cisco-AVPair = "shell:roles=\"network-admin vdc-admin\"" Cisco-AVPair = "shell:roles*\"network-admin\""
This is what I'm adding to the replies for Nexus 5K's. I don't have any 7K's but I'd be surprised if they were any different. I have not tried to send two roles so I can't confirm the syntax for that.
Cisco-AVPair += "shell:roles=network-admin", Service-Type := Administrative-User,
-David Mitchell
The current service type is = Administrative -User
I have tried each AVPair and nothing works. Has anyone else had this issue?
If anyone has any advice I would be really grateful.
Thanks
